1998 Crown Victoria turn signal/flasher

Push the flasher switch, nothing happens. Thereafter, the previously fine turn signals are dead. Took it to Firestone, they said they couldn't figure it out, but on the way home the turn signals were working fine. Short of never trying to turn the flashers on again, which is a very cheap fix, any ideas of what the problem is? -- Charly Coughran [email protected] I have a similar issue, and have a new flasher module, but I can't find where the old one is to replace it. Any ideas?

Usually the flasher relays are located either under the dash or out under the hood in a small black box along with some other fuses.  You can try swapping the flasher relays with other relays (for example: fuel pump relay, headlight relay, etc...) just as long as they look the same.  If your flashers start working then the relay is your problem and you can go to a local auto parts store and pick up a new one for about $10.

No turn signals, everything else works including hazards, took the box out under the dash where i was told the relay would be, and yes theres like 6 relays but they dont come off the board....

Actually there is a relay however it is not an individual part. The turn signal relay and the hazard relay are in the LCM (Lighting Control Module). This is expensive to replace however you should test the multi-function turn signal switch first as I am having the exact same problem with my 95 Crown Victoria LX. If you go to any parts store they will tell you that it is just a relay and sell you one for the newer Crown Victoria models. However in the 95 to about 2002 models they employed the bad idea of the LCM.Good luck.

My signal lights dont work on my 1995 ford crown victoria i need to know what fuse to change

turn signals usually have a flasher relay, you might also look at the switch in teh steering column. if the emergency flashers still work, swap the flashers, to see if that fixes the flashers.

Turn signals on my 99 crown Victoria are not working, i tried the fuse all ready

If all other lights are working properly (brakes, hazards and tail lights) there is a good possibility that it is a flasher unit. The flasher unit is usually near or in the fuse block and is usually a small round about an inch in diameter - can be plastic or metal covered. Grasp it firmly and pull straight out on it. There are 2 contacts at a 90° angle that fit into the board. A new unit should be under $10. To reinstall it - just align the contacts with the slot and push it firmly back into place. On most vehicles the hazard flasher unit is the same device but a separate unit. If you turn on the hazard switch and those lights are working you will be able to hear a click as it turns on and off. Once installed - activate the turn signals with the key on to see if it clicks.

No turn signals or emergency blinkers

Sounds like a multifunction switch, work the emergency flasher button up and down a few times, then attempt to work the turn signals if the signals work then you will need a multifunction switch.

Hazzard Lights on 1998 Ford Crown Victoria won't work

The hazards are on a seperate fuse to the indicators, on the inside of the fuse box cover it will tell you which fuse it is, simply replace it with one of the same rating and your hazards should work, if not come back to me

Cannot locate flasher for 1994 ford crown victoria

The flasher is the round most likely yellow but could be silver mounted in fuse panel. The hazard flasher is located on back side of fuse panel directly behind it.You can remove it and insert it in place of the turn signal flasher to see if it is bad.
